The issue was fixed for me by start enabling desktop effects, somewhere between gutsy and hardy. But this is not an actual fix, but a workaround.
The interesting thing here is that it was probably never fixed, because disabling desktop effects gives me a gnome-terminal without the transparency feature, that caused the trouble. In Edit -> Profile -> Effects -> Transparent Background, I can change the setting without any effect. And of course without triggering the CPU usage bug. IMHO, the transparency effect was very poor without composite, and should be completely removed from the preferences of gnome-terminal if it is not enabled. -- High cpu usage on Xorg with gnome-terminal and transparency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148138 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
